Abstract

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material, comprising a bleaching step of bleaching the surface to be treated of a wood base material and a printing step of printing a pattern corresponding to a first information obtained by capturing an image of a surface of a wood material on the bleached surface of the wood base material by synchronizing the bleached surface of the wood base material with the first information.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1. A method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material, comprising the steps of:
 a bleaching step for bleaching a surface of a wood base material; 
 a verifying step for verifying first singular points of the surface of the wood base material in a first information, and second singular points of the surface of the wood base material bleached by said step of bleaching; and 
 a printing step for printing a pattern corresponding to the first information on the surface of the wood base material bleached by said step of bleaching with making a substantial correspondence between the first singular points and the second singular points obtained by said step of verifying. 
 
     
     
       2. The method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material according to  claim 1 , further comprising the step of obtaining the first information of the surface of the wood base material by capturing an image of the surface of the wood base material before said step of bleaching. 
     
     
       3. The method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material according to  claim 2 , further comprising the step of performing an image-processing operation on the image of the surface of the wood base material in the first information obtained by said step of obtaining. 
     
     
       4. The method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material according to  claim 1 , further comprising the step of obtaining a second information by capturing an image of the surface of the wood base material bleached in said step of bleaching. 
     
     
       5. The method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material according to  claim 4 , wherein said step of verifying includes selecting similar patterns between the first information and the second information, and said step of printing includes using similar patterns selected from the first information that correspond to similar patterns of the second information. 
     
     
       6. The method for manufacturing a wooden decorative material according to  claim 2 , wherein said step of obtaining the first information includes selecting from among image data obtained by capturing an image of a surface of a predetermined wood material or a processed image of the image data obtained by capturing an image of a surface of the predetermined wood material.
